An Israeli soldier avoids dust as a military helicopter prepares to land on the Israel-Lebanon border August 9, 2006 to evacuate troops injured in fighting in southern Lebanon.
But he is going to have to deal with the fact that there is a growing feeling that he is blowing it...and he is being perceived as hoping the UN will solve the hezzie problem, when most of the rest of those who know, don't believe the UN has the will, desire or ability to.
I took a nap for about an hour waiting for my hubby to call...now I am ready to rock. Time for coffee!
What ever the outcome of the battle with Hezbollah I think we will see a major shake-up in Israeli politics. The disengagement plan will meet a lot of resistance, and with many soldiers falling due to what the military - and therefore the citizens, since we are on the whole talking about a citizens army - perceive dithering politicians, Kadima and Labour will end up in hot water.
Back later!

"I took a nap for about an hour waiting for my hubby to call...now I am ready to rock. Time for coffee!"
Wish I had taken a nap. I guess I'll eat some cereal instead. I'm wide open now.
On another note, how can a democrat come out of their house after the week we've had concerning terrorism? I'd love to hear democrats tomorrow with the big news of this major terror plot (20 headed for US)
If the war drags on much longer, I suspect that their coalition will be dead. There's a lot of angst bubbling up. They should be glad that Bibi hasn't been acting like he's trying to see if he can organize a coalition that would take power away from Kadima-Labour.
Exactly.
It doesn't fit with their world view. They'll talk about it like it's the minor thing, an inconvenience, or justified because we're so evil.
Bibi might after he hears the news this morning.
Sky News says US has raised its security threat level too.
SKY NEWS VIA FOX NEWS:
US HAS RAISED IT TERRORIST THREAT LEVEL
Level raised for commercial flights only to highest level 4.
Considering it's midmorning there already, about 10, he probably knows something about it for sure!
Lord grant brains to the TSA people....my hubby will be travelling on Sunday...
Same here, G'Nite.
US TERROR THREAT (HIGHEST LEVEL) ONLY APPLIES TO PLANE FLIGHTS BETWEEN US AND BRITAIN.
"Considering it's midmorning there already, about 10, he probably knows something about it for sure!"
I'm looking for his response.
